Advent by Sister Delia Calis, SSND

By Sister Delia Calis, SSND

 

Wait.

Be still,

like the seed hidden deep in winter soil.

 

Wait.

Fretting hurries not the sunrise,

but stretches the darkness.

 

Wait.

I will renew your strength,

pooling desert sands to springs of water.

 

Wait.

Be still.

Dawn is near.
